A dramatic scene at golden hour is an Old Hollywood staple, and Gabbi Garcia’s glam was certainly reminiscent of this. Jason Delos Reyes painted his muse’s face using warm tones and highlighted it with a radiant complexion—all of which channeled softness that was contrasted by strikingly lined eyes. In a cinematic evening like such, you simply can’t go wrong with classic waves and a voluminous side part, which were achieved through a collaboration between Aries Manal and Renz Pangilinan.

Nante Alingasa styled her hair in a softly structured updo, capping off the look in an effortlessly chic manner.

Shimmering and beautiful, Katrina Llegado graced the blue carpet with mermaid waves that dropped a little beyond her hips. Her hair styled by MJ Rone flowed with her every move, it was just impossible to ignore. And as expected from a beauty queen like Katrina, she arrived in makeup that married timeless elements with modern touches. Donald Lapez adorned her face with soft pinks, and her eyes with a glittering silver eyeliner.

Mimiyuuuh’s got the edginess covered. With the skills of Dale Mallari, her iconic bangs became a source of rockstar nature as they were accompanied with a long tousled mullet. Her eyes became a focal point with blurred liner, lengthy lashes, and sparkles of gold and silver, all made possible through the Thazzia Falek touch.

Styled by Bek Vasquez with flipped ends, Klarisse De Guzman’s classic blonde bob was translated into a retro ode. The kiss curl resting on her forehead undeniably delivered more character, too. Ash Lei Bantilan utilized shades of peach, nudes, and corals for the singer’s makeup, with soft brows, glowing skin, and glossy lips completing the look.

Kylie Padilla was fierce as can be. Echoing her concept of a phoenix rising, her hair by Mark Ibarrola effortlessly draped down her back.
